Best gujarati thali you have had
Rajwadu, Vishalla and Gordhan Thal in Ahmedabad. Rajdhani in UB City Mall, Bangalore.
Hotel Prince in Bhuj. Out of this world!
My driver had taken over 2.5 hours to drive from Bhuj to Lakhpat, near the Pakistan border. But it took an hour or so less to return to Bhuj, when in Lakhpat I suggested we could lunch at Hotel Prince if we could make it back before the 1pm closing time. "Impossible", he said. Then added, "But Hotel prince is very good".
We ended up with 20 minutes to spare!

Joshi union club at kalbadevi is a gem..most authentic thali i've had other than marriages or functions. Gopi dining in ahmedabad is also upto the mark. I dont like paneer and alu and matar coming into gujarati thalis. Sadly in mumbai or even in gujarat there are very few restaurants which serve authentic gujju thalis.

Joshi union club last month times of india reported that Gandhi(or was it nehru?) ate here

Hotel Rajdhani- Crawford market
Thakkar club - Kalbadevi road
Thakkers - Birla Matushree [Marine lines]
The Village - Kandivali west,Raghuleela mall.
Laxmi thali - Opposite borivali station west.

It was very simple, not much fancy decor or anything - just one purpose - provide roof, table and chair for the people who have come to enjoy the yummy Gujarati thali - and ofcourse provide the yummy thali and service. There used to be 30-60 minute wait on weekends.
There are some thalis in Bombay which are pretty good (Rajdhani, Panchvati, Samrat... havent tried Golden star), but none can ever replace Toran from my heart

Indeed that place is Toran Dining Hall,opp.Sales India on Ashram Road.
They still serve the same mouthwatering gujarati thali.
My experience of good Gujrati Thali at Jalaram Restaurent Verval, near to Bus stand. It was long back in year 2004.
In Rajkot, you can try typical kathiawadi food at Iswariya Post on Jamnagar Highway... Kathiawadi food includes dishes like undhiyu, dhokli nu shaak, rotla, etc.
In Surat,
Embassy hotel near the railway station
Bhatwari
Another gem of a place is in a small town near Anand called VVnagar. The name of the place is Divine. Haven't been there for years but it used to be much cheaper compared to similiar places in Ahemdabad or Surat and the food and service were second to none.
